Taxi to pattaya from swampy was 1200bt in August.

Better option is to walk to departures and hail a taxi that's just dropped off.

I find a lot of the taxis at the official point are non road worthy. Maybe I'm unlucky!

I like to take a modern newer car rather than an old shitter where the breaks are crap and the tyres are worn to the thread. Safety first in my eyes.

Good luck.

Friend of the wifes has a highend restaurant and seems to be doing very well but has very little competition. He also has a very nice resort that gives him an excellent return.

He works extremely hard and has identified exactly who he wants as his customers.

His biggest moan seems to be the quality of and retaining of staff.

There's always somebody who know some hi-so big wig.

Load if rubbish.

I think you will find you still have to pay stamp duty on the agreed value plus the survey costs and a few more fees.

I am not sure the stepdaughter can transfer the land unless she is over 20. To do so she would need a court order and I understand this is not likely. Land in a minor's name can not be leased for more than 3 years or transfered without that.

What survey costs?

Bought and sold land in Thai wife name and never a survey in or out.

I agree with all posts thus far. I wasn't complaining but was intrigued what others thought.

Thanks

I've been on this site for quite a few years now and I see the same questions being asked from different posters many times.

Are idea and post topics running dry?

At 6 million, sold house in Feb. Thai name to Thai name transfer costs were 101,000bt.

House and land owned for over 5 years.

Now I have all my cash out of Thailand 68/70 in - 43.5 out) I hope we see the THB - GBP climb each week. Selfish maybe but that's life.

Good luck

And that is exactly how one makes the issue meaningful. Good call.

You have been lucky and done well, not many people win at both ends of the range, most are happy to make a bit, ok a bit more than a bit. It does not happen to often. When the crisis started I dumped a lot PDQ into a 4 year bond at 6.27% soon the rates tumbled, I did well but after the 4 years the best I could get was 2.35%, nice stories but not of any value to todays levels or to do with the GBP rate to the Thai BT!

At present its seems to be hovering between 49.4 to 49.8, 50 seems to be a barrier to far although I hope not, but, it a heck of a lot better than the 43.5 earlier this year.

I was lucky, know nothing about markets etc.

Pure luck.

But I do wish I'd've bought plenty Thai gold back in 2001 at £80 per baht!!!!

I agree with the op. in UK its a stressful place, shitty service, work, expenses etc.

When I'm in Thai I change, laid back, easy going, no stress.

Lived in Thai and holidayed.

Work for myself now as had a stressful job for 10 years which I hated, less stressed, less worry. Better life.

But in UK I drink pints not bottled beer.

Years ago there was a study done on free peanuts on a bar.

Basically they were tested (the left overs) and had something like 5 traces of different piss on them from where people went for a lash, didn't wash and stick their pissy fingers in the bowl!! Yuck.

Anyway, I prefer from the bottle as if in a glass I drink to fast and get too lashed up!

On a day trip to London, "Where are all the white people?"

Quality post.

Well done

Not for school holiday dates as per usual.

BA are my last choice as crew are terrible and think they are cut above.

Much better airlines for less money. EVA, Thai are the best direct from Lhr

Many good Middle East too.

Now I have all my cash out of Thailand 68/70 in - 43.5 out) I hope we see the THB - GBP climb each week. Selfish maybe but that's life.

Good luck

No, it's nothing to do with Thailand I accept but seeing as he's an Ozzie living in UK and Thailand is halfway I thought I'd ask!!!!

I think his didgereedoo has got him into all sorts of trouble!!!

So, the old Ozzie Rolf charged with serious offences.

He'll go to prison if guilty.

Any thoughts?

Personally, these historic allegations if indecent assault could be or could not be true but images if kids I hope he goes down

Do what you gotta do if you need cash.

River trip and stop at temples etc.

Nana plaza

Pay pong night market

Hard Rock Cafe

MBK

Plenty to do

Not sure about that as everything can be faked in Thai.

Worth a try if you need cash. Try anything is you're potless.

Good luck

Thai smile is like the budget part of Thai airways.

The Frankfurt - BKK route is TG.

I flew Thai smile internally a few weeks ago and all was perfect.

It was only an hours flight but served a sandwich and drink,

I was quite impressed as I to wad apprehensive.

Good luck

No chance

I can sign in on iPhone 4S.

I'm sure most of you couldn't divide 2/5 without a calculator, or learn basic math from this pic.

My point exactly. Dividing 2 by 5 isn't that easy.

Thanks

So what's the answer to the op's question?

Divide 2 by 5 = ???

Op answer please
